Presentation Video in Just Few Minutes

Reviewed on 18/11/2022

The software is awesome for who want to create video quickly and professionally.

Pros

Smooth Animating any object. Scene creation, 3D characters and lots more... Best video creation software.

Cons

Only Less transaction option. You can't change color separately in paragraph, if you want to highlight particular text in sentences or paragraph, you can do it, Whole text(sentance or paragraph) color will change.

Great desktop animation software

Reviewed on 18/11/2022

Pros

Prebuild templates and animation effect that's what I like most about Createstudio.With their assets, you can create great animation video in just a few minutes, and that what make CreateStudio stand out, at least as desktop software. Most "template-based" animation solutions are SAAS, but createstudio is a desktop software, that's means you can use it without an internet connection.Also, their 3D character asset quality is soo good.Oh one more thing, createstudio doesn't need crazy computer specs.

Cons

Createstudio is not professional animation software so don't expect you can create complex animation, which is fine for me. I know it's not intended as a video editor, but createstudio has some tools that are really useful for a video editing project, unfortunately, their GUI is kinda weird to use for video editing. So basically createstudio is best for one use only, which is create animation videos.

Perfect Animation up for grabs

Reviewed on 18/11/2022

I have 2 other softwares to do my edit work and if i want quality, i would turn towards CreateStudio and it never fails to deliver

Pros

I have been using this software for more than 2 years now. The first impression was how im going to work on this software as it looked bit difficult and gives an impression of only for iOS user :)But as i started to use it over and over, i liked the feature and the quality of templates provided and the smoothness in which the animations are made.I would definitely recommend this software for any content creator

Cons

Very less templates been provided for LTD users and that is a pain point. They should provide the LTD for longtime users and better price, as i feel the last time they did come up with high price.

Lifetime license is only 67$ and its worth it

Reviewed on 5/6/2022

Its super easy to use, doesn't require a super computer. Main thing is its currently super cheap, before they raise their price, you guys should get it ASAP

Pros

Its super cheap. I can use free online SVG converter and this makes the media and library material limitless

Cons

Some library materials have to be bought again. But Its not a problem when you can import stuff anyways. Compared to Vyond (999$ per year), this product only costs 67$ lifetime and its worth it or even cheap for its price

Not just for Advertising

Reviewed on 23/11/2020

Covid 19 is challenging many organizations to find new and creative ways to reach out to communities and clients. CreateStudio not only offers the software to produce quality, engaging videos, but also in a format for business and social content contributers with small budgets and limited experience the chance to compete in a media savvy world.

Pros

I have no training for using the CreateStudio software other than a couple of previous programs I purchased for video making. Most of what I know comes from Youtube and product training videos.

I am a pastor trying to offer quality pre-recorded worship videos. When CreateStudio was offered, I added it to another toon creating program I had begun using to create stories for our young and young at heart. I was pleased with the relative ease of use and the quality of the videos. I am still learning, but I love it so much that I purchased the all access pass and each week I am learning. I have gotten positive feedback from parents and adults that enjoy them. The December update with a Jesus character made me cry I was so happy. Very grateful. Look forward to a long relationship with this company! Customer service and the CreateStudio Facebook page have been very helpful.

Cons

CreateStudio regularly adds features and so fixes may be in the works as I write this. Lipsync would be awesome. Right now characters have talking ability, but sometimes there is a noticible difference between mouth movenents and words. It would be nice to sync human voices. Right now I record separately, approximate the talking movements and then use a second program to add my voice. It would be great to have Idle and talk. Having a character repeat the same movement when talking can become too busy. I recognize I use the program differently, and so, characters may talk more, but I believe this addition would be helpful to others.

Simply the Best

Reviewed on 1/11/2022

With CreateStudio Pro it's very easy to create professional videos. I a short time you can learn all the skills you need. And it makes a lot of fun to work with this awesome software.

Pros

There are many, many things I like about this software. These are the things I like most:The outstanding support from the company. Nearly all my questions and requests are answered in an few hours, even on weekends.The great choice of animations you have for videos, images and texts.The large number of assets you get with the basic versionThe possibility to import, edit and export videos with transparent background in MOV and WEBM format.The masking and track matte options.The possibility to work with SVG images.The possibility to group objects on the timeline to animate them together.The possibility save scenes to use them in other projects.The one-click transition feature.The Doodle and Color Replace features.And last but not least the ongoing development and improvement of the software with at least one major update per month.

Cons

For me there are 3 cons to mention with CreateStudio Pro:You must have an internet connection to work with the software.The time it takes to render a video, especially for larger projects, can be long.Without the optional All Access Pass, you can't share or exchange self-created templates with other users, even if you only use the assets of the basic version.

Great Value From a Dedicated Team

Reviewed on 23/11/2020

Create Studio is fun to use. The tutorials are very helpful in showing how to perform the many useful functions. The hard part is remembering to plan out your video before jumping in to start creating.

Pros

Create Studio is a video creation software, and there are many of them available today.
One of the things that set it apart from others is the quality combination of 2D and 3D animated graphics. The controls allow for tremendous flexibility to animate objects and characters. A high-end program like Create Studio has tools that need to be learned and practiced, but the results are the ability to produce very professional videos.

The one thing that impresses me more than any other is actually not the software itself. It is the remarkable team behind Create Studio. They are constantly working to add and improve not just assets, but the functionality of the program. And the level of communication they give to their users shows how active and dedicated the Create Studio team is their product and their users.

Cons

The best value for someone who creates many videos is the All Access Pass, which offers a continuous monthly flow of new characters, objects, and templates. However, a person who has a limited budget or doesn't constantly make videos would not avail themselves of this and would have available only the assets that come with their original purchase. My opinion is that many of these people may consider the quantity and variety of included assets to be too limited.

The must have for video creators

Reviewed on 1/11/2022

I've been using create studio since first came out in 2020 and I was blown away with it. I was so happy I stumbled across it in an ad and I bought it immediately and started using it and had so much fun with it. It is just fun. It's always adding new things, features as well as effects and the community and support is just fantastic that if you have a problem with something, they will get back to you really quickly with real answers and not just some standard answer that a lot of companies use when they're answering support tickets. You're actually speaking to somebody who knows something about the software that'll help you if you actually get stuck

Pros

If you are a video or contact creator then create studio pro is a must-have. I've tried a lot other softwares and they all work well, but I find create studio pro is really an all-in-one software that has literally every feature that you could possibly imagine. It's fun, it's easy and the support is like nothing else

Cons

If you aren't using it on a regular basis and you're paying for the monthly subscription services to access all the extra features, then you might find it a little bit expensive. Although that's not really a complaint, it's just the only thing I could think of that could be viewed as negative for some people. But all in all, it's great value for your money for what you're actually getting with it

Pros

Endless features, many different styles and infinite possibilities for your creativity. The team behind CreateStudio is really helpful and knowledgeable and the just keep adding great content every time you thought you couldn't love CreateStudio more.

Cons

That one of my favorite characters from the old CreateStudio (Dog) hasn't been added yet - I know it will be, but I just can't wait to work with the character again in the Pro version :)

Rebranding of CreateStudio

Reviewed on 1/11/2022

I could say that for a start I am still in between if this software could be of help to my everyday projects in video editing. I do enjoy the 3D characters included in the package, and even though I am not knowledgeable and skilled in animation, I found it very engaging to be able to create videos with 3d animation with a few actions included. I just do hope that they will include more actions for the characters and add more characters at least thrice a month. I am hoping they could cover all characters in all walks of life so users could be able to create variety in their output. The more users this software will have, the more popular it will be and the more it will be saleable to anyone who would be wanting to have experience with it. I hope characters could also change clothes, be able to change even the color so it won't be quite boring in the long run seeing the characters in the same clothes in the same situation or scene.

Pros

What I like most is the 3D Characters and 2D Characters with preset actions that could be used.

Cons

The assets are quite a few for the initial package. This will gain more popularity and buyers might double think to cancel their purchase if they could see many assets included in the initial package bought.

The Best Video Creation and Editing Software

Reviewed on 1/11/2022

Pros

I am an early adopter of CreateStudio. The software has been updated quite frequently and it became so powerful now. It has a lot of assets in the software. 3D assets are of high quality and really standout. The video editing process is comparatively easier than other softwares. Although I am not a frequent user, but I see every updates and read all the change logs. As I am an All Access Pass member, I get new characters, scenes and other updates every month. This is one of my best investments.

Cons

I haven't seen any cons but as it is a desktop software, it can't be used on the tablet or a chromebook. But I understand that deploying the software so powerful as web app is very difficult.

What an amazing tool

Reviewed on 2/11/2022

Really great! It's so fast and easy to use. You get almost instant results without needing any experience at all!

Pros

For the most part, I no longer use the high end software packages like AE for my motion graphics, video explainers,etc. This is an amazing tool to have at your disposal. Unbelievably inexpensive, easy to use and a very small learning curve!

Cons

This is not the right tool if you are looking to create cinematic trailers or high end unique motion graphics, as it is predominantly a self contained tool with some graphical limitations. But it is more than enough for most people out there!

My Little Secret

Reviewed on 23/11/2020

When asked how likely I am to recommend Create Studio to others I said "Neutral". The only reason is, it's my secret! I kind of hate for others to see how easy it is for me to create so many cool videos, or offer our clients so many options from a template we put out! This has been my favorite short video product yet. If I was to let the cat out of the bag, I would say GET IT!

Pros

The software only takes a getting started tutorial, to actually get started, but yet you can go deeper and deeper to create some amazing eye catchers. The tutorials and support are top shelf.

Cons

A few of the things that I wished were available have been added. I don't really have any cons to mention except that I wished I could keep the club templates that I acquired while in the club.

Best for hands-off, high impact video creation, but it comes at a price

Reviewed on 21/10/2022

I have made many useful videos using CreateStudio. However, I keep another video creation software open to have access to basic features like cropping. It is overall a fun software to use, but I continue to have moments of feeling surprised that certain features are ones I do not have access to as a lifetime member or that certain features simply do not exist.

Pros

Non-human characters and Text to Speech with modifying options make this one of the only animation softwares with drag and drop character animations with the possiblity of child-friendly animated cartoon characters. Direct access to media hosting websites saves your data storage and allows for inspired additions to your projects in the moment.

Cons

Unless you are paying gor their highest level of membership access to the media library including characters and project templates is limited to about 10% of their content. Transitions between character animation presets are non existant making for choppy motions when chainging animations in a scene.

I am retired but it helps me pass time and be more creative. i keep improving daily.

Pros

I am a 64 year old retiree from Malaysia. I was trying out many applications on the net but I had to cancel my subscriptions because although most of them were probably very good but was very complicated for me.
I really enjoyed the Create Studio experience because-
1) Affordable
2) User Friendly
3) Very quick Support
4) Excellent tutorials although some took me some time to understand
5) The FB group are also very helpful and we are like family now
6) Excellent Graphics

I would give them 10 STARS if possible. Try it and you wont regret it. Lastly CS helped me to heal a very sad mind and heart after a recent loss of somebody very dear to me.
Thank You Create Studio.
